Default Newbie Question

Folks I just bought the first desiel vehicle in my life so I will have lots of "Newbie" questions and I hope to learn a lot from this Forum. I bought a used Dodge Ram 2500 HD with 54,000 miles on it.

My first question is that I see lots of references to Bombs, Bombers, etc. Please explain what these terms are about

Jim

Bombing is referred to modifying your vehicle -- as in bombing your vehicle or your vehicle has lots of bombs (mods)

BOMBS = Better Off Modified Baby

There's a lot of thing you can do with these trucks to make em a little more fun. Dodge really de-tunes them to preserve the warranty and we just tend to re-tune them to where they are supposed to be.

Be sure to fill in your signature with the details about your truck so we know what you have. And from one old retired soldier to another, welcome to the site.
